"banana chocolate chip muffins"

I made these banana chocolate chip muffins and they are amazing. And only 3 points (weight watchers). The kids loved them and have requested more! Here is the recipe. I found it on recipegirl.com. 3 medium very-ripe bananas
1 large egg
1/3 c. low fat milk (or buttermilk)
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 c. brown sugar
1 1/2 c. flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350. Line regular size muffin tin with liners or spray with cooking spray.
In large bowl, mash bananas with a fork. Whisk in egg, milk and sugars.
In separate bowl, whisk flour, baking soda and salt. Slowly add to wet mixture and mix until combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
Spoon equal amounts of batter into 12 muffin cups. Bake 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes in pan then remove to wire rack to cool completely.
Servings: 12

They are really good out of the oven, or heat them for 10 seconds in the microwave to get the chocolate chips gooey :)

P.S. Movie Review
The Women- LOVED IT (if youv'e been married a long time and are over the age of 35, it's one you can relate to.)
Seven Pounds- Good. A little dark. Took us until the movie was half way over to figure it out.
The Express- AWESOME. AWESOME. AWESOME. Based on a true story. Best movie I have seen in a long time. Very "feel good" type of sports movie.
